Friendship Walks is a 1.5 mile fun walk around the National Mall, focused on ending homelessness in the Washington, DC region.

All proceeds from the Walk go to Friendship Place, a nonprofit organization that offers the most effective model for addressing homelessness, with innovative programs that empower individuals and families experiencing homelessness to rebuild their lives, find homes, get jobs, and reconnect with friends, family, and the community, permanently.

Since 2013, Friendship Walks has raised over half a million dollars to help people in our area leave homelessness for housing. But, there is still work to be done. Your donations and fundraising dollars will allow Friendship Place to help individuals and families—many who are sleeping in cars, in shelters, or on the street today—find stable housing.

By supporting Friendship Walks, you are allowing Friendship Place to create a lasting impact in the thousands of lives they help each year. Together, we can ensure everyone in the DC region has a place to call home.
